Crowd-Funding Campaign Donors 2013

Jul 30, 2013

We did it!

BOMA’s “We Believe in Mothers” crowd-funding campaign raised more than $43,600 in four weeks. That impressive total includes $28,600 from 232 BOMA believers, plus a $15,000 matching gift from one of our most generous and loyal donors.

These contributions will support BOMA’s work in 2013 as we launch 455 businesses across Northern Kenya, enrolling 1,365 women in a two-year poverty graduation program that provides a start-up grant, business skills and savings training, and sustained mentoring to women living in extreme poverty in Northern Kenya. In turn, they’ll use the income and savings from their BOMA business to pay for food, school fees and medical care for more than 6,825 children.

By giving women these basic financial tools—a sustainable income, savings and access to credit through BOMA businesses and savings associations—our donors are helping families to survive drought, build resilience and adapt to a changing climate in one of the poorest, hardest places on the planet. Thanks for believing, as we do, in the power and potential of mothers around the world.
